Section Three: Network Configuration
The BOCAHUB-24 Plus is intended to connect
multiple workstations (stand-alone) and/or other
concentrators to an Ethernet star topology network.
3.1 10BASE-T PORTS
The BOCAHUB-24 Plus has 24 10BASE-T UTP
(unshielded twisted pair) ports to connect to other
hubs or workstations. This connection uses an RJ-45
8-pin connector. When connecting to workstations, a
straight-through connector is used. When connecting
to other hubs, a “crossed” cable is used. Connections
are on the next page. See Section Four: Cabling
Characteristics for pin-outs of cables.
NOTE: If a straight cable is used to connect to
another hub, the 24x port can be used instead
of port 24 to internally cross the transmit and
receive pairs of the cable.
